UNSPSC 51241307 Allantoin is a Commodity code representing individual pharmaceutical and medical supply ingredients procured by state and local health and emergency services departments. State and local governments buy allantoin primarily as a component in wound-care and topical-treatment formulations; the recent solicitation activity shows fire rescue and emergency medical services departments purchasing it as part of broader medical aid supply bundles that include antiseptic sprays, hydrogen peroxide, bandages, first aid kits, and emergency blankets. The issuing bodies are typically municipal fire and rescue departments and health agencies seeking to stock emergency response and first aid inventories with nine-month-minimum shelf life. Set-aside programs targeting Small Local Business Enterprises and Underutilized Woman and Minority Owned Business Enterprises are active in the market.

The City of Tampa Fire Rescue Department issued ITB 25-P-00157 for medical aid supplies in April 2026, with a total departmental budget of $100,000 and potential for one-year renewals over a three-year period. The solicitation covered 32 medical and first aid supply line items with estimated annual quantities ranging from 1 to 2,700 units per item, and included bid discounts up to $10,000 for SLBEs and up to $20,000 for U-WMBEs. The procurement required electronic submission through the OpenGov eProcurement Portal with evaluation based on product quality, vendor responsibility, financial condition, and local ordinance compliance. Recent activity appears concentrated in Florida, though the narrow dataset does not support characterization of geographic spread beyond this single Tampa solicitation.
